QUOTE (RockRaines @ Mar 8, 2011 -> 06:23 PM) Yeah, Metallica has said that Iron Maiden and Sabbath were both drivers of their sound, both of those bands also list LZ as influences. I figured this is a better list for TRU: http://www.mtv.com/bands/m/metal/greatest_...406/index.jhtml More your sound? It doesn't even matter, the opinion of what is rock and what is metal now is so twisted.. that's my main problem with that bracket, a lot of people on that list I don't consider to rock at all.. And yeah Metallica named Led Zeppelin, they also named a s*** ton of other bands too.. what are they suppose to say? Led Zeppelin sucks? Listing cover songs means nothing either, people do covers of other people s*** all the time.. I get it, you guys like LZ.. I think they are awful, to each his own.. I still don't think they are metal

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Mar 8, 2011 -> 06:06 PM) You clearly missed the point. Of course people have different music tastes, its just that in every measurable away Led dominates Metallica. I found it ironic that you as a Metallica fan wouldnt respect Led who is often credited as the founders of Heavy metal. I just wanted to point out the irony in saying Metallica is awesome but Led is trash, when Led basically invented Metallica's sound. You may not like their music, but there is no way they arent a 1 seed as they are arguably the best Rock band of all time. What the hell are you talking about, Metallica sounds nothing like Led Zeppelin.. And im sorry, but Led Zeppelin is not even close to metal

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Mar 8, 2011 -> 06:00 PM) You should also read the article given that most of the comments about LZ are made by Dave Grohl I like Dave Grohl, I like some Foo Fighters and Nirvana as well.. but I don't care that Dave Grohl likes Led Zepplin.. I think they are terrible, don't like their music one bit.. that's fine, im sure there are people who would think bands I love are terrible too, that's just how it goes..

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Mar 8, 2011 -> 06:00 PM) So anything made before your time is irrelevant? No, didn't say that

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Mar 8, 2011 -> 02:20 PM) This is an excerpt from Rolling Stones 100 Greatest Artists (Led was 14): http://www.rollingstone.com/music/lists/10...ppelin-19691231 haha ok, and the Beach Boys are 12th on that list.. GTFO.. Very few people have the same idea of whats good music or what belongs in what category.. your little rolling stone reference is hilarious by the way.. Little Richard is the 8th greatest artist of all time? Haha, I guess I cant argue with that.. I usually put on "Tutti Frutti" and rock out all the time

QUOTE (Tex @ Mar 8, 2011 -> 06:46 AM) If not rock, what would you consider Allman Brothers? Blues? Eh, I dunno.. but Outkast I wouldn't consider rock, U2? There is just a really weird mix with this bracket

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Mar 7, 2011 -> 02:31 PM) You dont have to be old to appreciate one of the best if not the best rock band ever. Yeah you do, Led Zepplin is trash.. and how is Metallica not a 1 seed? Secondly, ide like to know who thinks the Allman Brothers "rock".. this tournament is a sham

haha, to anyone who watched RAW... my brother was one of the security guards who had to come get Vicki Guerrero out of the ring tonight.. he was the one with the tattoos

QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Mar 7, 2011 -> 12:36 PM) There was a huge influx of those a few months before Christmas, and there were wired ones that were similar in size for years. that earpiece thing has been around for years, but the simple headset that came with my xbox is more than fine for me.. I have turtle beaches that I never even use and those were $100, I use the free crap one instead all the time.. dunno, but I just like it its simple

lmao, Led Zepplin is a 1 seed? Was this tournament committee all in their 70's or something?

QUOTE (danman31 @ Mar 6, 2011 -> 10:00 PM) I don't understand the chat thing. What's the big deal about that? You can chat during multiplayer games when needed. As for the music, I always have my laptop in the room with me so if I want music, I use that. To me, these seem like very small things to choose a console over. If you have a PS3 and say 5 of your friends are online, the only way you could talk with them is if ALL of them are in the same game as you.. On XBOX, you all could be playing totally different games or not playing anything at all, maybe just watching a movie on netflix, and you could all be in the same party together.. How a next gen console doesn't have the ability to let gamers all be in a party seems pretty ridiculous to me.. I don't have a problem paying $5 a month to get to use a (much better) online service.. I get every penny out of it too.. If you wanna be legit about it, each system has its benefits over the other.. they both have great visuals, so when it comes down to it its pretty much whichever you prefer.. I prefer XBOX, and really cant see any reason what so ever to switch to a PS3

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Mar 6, 2011 -> 04:17 AM) lol 360 is so trash.. but hey its microsoft, so let the slobbing begin Constructive conversation! cute brah

QUOTE (flippedoutpunk @ Mar 5, 2011 -> 01:57 PM) i still have my launch xbox that i brought to Iraq and is full of moon dust from the desert and it still runs like a champ. you cant talk with friends while on PSN you can only do a chat room thinggy, a solution to that that ive found was to tape my cell phone inside my turtle beach headset and call whoever id like to chat with.. its almost the same thing. lol ps3 is so trash.. but hey its sony, so let the slobbing begin

QUOTE (MHizzle85 @ Mar 4, 2011 -> 06:06 PM) As a bitter & soon to be former Xbox owner, it's more than that. Everyone I know that's owned a PS3, 0 problems. I've had to send in my Xbox 3 times since getting it back in '07. I've known of other people having to send theirs in more than once in that same time period. don't know what to tell you about that, I had an elite and played the s*** out of it for 5 years before it finally had an issue.. I sent it to Microsoft, with no warranty, and had it repaired for free and returned to me in 3 weeks.. I have since upgraded to the new model, not a single problem.. xbox live is better than anything PS3 offers, sorry but ide rather be able to talk to all of my friends without having to play the same game in the same lobby.. I almost never play non multiplayer games as it is, so that's a pretty huge sticking point for me..

If hes well enough to throw 2 innings at max effort in a fn spring training game his ass better be in the rotation in a month

I know this is almost a week late, but man Fitch got jobbed in the Penn fight.. how could that possibly have been a draw

QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ Mar 3, 2011 -> 01:26 PM) He does. It's only upsetting once a year when MLB The Show comes out. Otherwise I don't really care. aw man, but the blu ray player dude!!!!! its the coolest!

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Mar 2, 2011 -> 11:23 PM) Sounds like Davies had sex with his gf... Im not buying that, im pretty sure its because he had tea..

QUOTE (nitetrain8601 @ Mar 2, 2011 -> 06:30 PM) Sadly, this is going to turn into Rock and Cena shaking hands at Wrestlemania. ugh, I cant believe I didnt even picture that scenario.. how sickening

QUOTE (flippedoutpunk @ Mar 2, 2011 -> 11:06 PM) Cmon were talkin cubs fans here.. They want that BP cup baby! .....are they still doin that? wait, arent you a cubs fan.. you said you loved carlos silva today

QUOTE (chw42 @ Mar 1, 2011 -> 08:12 PM) MLB 2K11 demo on PS3 looks terrible. Game plays alright, but the jaggies and lack of graphical detail make it look like a half-assed port, which it probably is... The videos ive watched for it on IGN look the exact same as last years game, which is disappointing

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Feb 27, 2011 -> 04:29 PM) Interesting end to the Louisville/Pitt game. OT, Louisville up 3, Pitt ball with under 10. They miss a layup, Louisville rebounds, make a couple passes, get a breakaway dunk to go up 5 with .5 left. Game over, right? After the dunk, the ball is lying on the court, a few of the Louisville male cheerleaders walk onto the court thinking it's over even though the clock clearly never ran out...one goes all the way to get the ball and throws it about 20 feet up in the air and spins around. TECHNICAL FOUL. Pitt makes the 2 shots, has the ball on the inbounds, but just not enough time to get off a 3 point attempt to tie the game. I wish that breakaway dunk somehow either tied it or put them up 1 or 2. Stupid f***ing cheerleaders. Eh your making it sound like it was a close call or something.. they had to go the length of the court in .5 seconds.. it was very stupid for that cheerleader to grab the ball, but it would have taken a miracle for Pitt to even get a semi decent shot off like that Still very stupid, and an unnecessary scare in a game that should have been over earlier

QUOTE (fathom @ Feb 27, 2011 -> 10:40 PM) The Eastern Conference NBA Playoffs are going to be amazing. Not just quality basketball, but great storylines as well. Im just glad the east is so much better than its been in the past

wait, im confused.. is this going to be on MLB Network as in actually on TV or MLB TV as in you have to watch at MLB.com?

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Feb 27, 2011 -> 03:33 AM) No. In a way, its kind of like arbitration. They have to agree on a certain number (if it isn't already part of his contract) which the player will receive up front in order to forgo the rest of his contract. AKA he would have lost more than a couple million had he been bought out most likely
